From Brabblemark:
When crawling terror comes from space, only the living dead can save the Earth.
ZYBORG COMMANDO RESURRECTION OVERDRIVE is a twisted, post-apocalyptic, sci-fi horror roleplaying game. In this dark future, a invasion of giant robotic insects and their masters is only opposed by you and your comrades – undead cybersoldiers risen from the grave on a mission of vengeance.
ZCRO is Starship Troopers meeting Return of the Living Dead while chewing a piece of Bubblegum Crisis and rocking out to a soundtrack by the Misfits. It’s a war of horrors with Hollywood-style tactics and combat, but it’s equally about trust, shadows, torments, and the struggle against a never-ending Hunger. Come on – take a bite.
ZCRO is a complete RPG, featuring:
- a new d10x skill and combat system that is simple to use, encouraging tactics and teamwork to master;
easy step-by-step character creation rules for 4 ZYBORG COMMANDO callsigns: the Cannibal, Ghost, Psycho, and Ripper; - character aspects (trust, shadows, torments, and Hunger) designed to encourage teamwork and roleplaying;
- quick advancement rules to boost your abilities even as your memories and humanity continue to decay;
- a GameMaster’s chapter with detailed advice on how to run a ZCRO game, including useful ideas for almost any other RPG;
- sample survivors, beasts, and alien invaders with dozens of possible attacks, abilities, and weapons, plus random charts for creating your own unique extraterrestrial army;
- and conveniently bookmarked chapters, sections, and hyperlinked page references.
